To some extent.
The "survival" package allows left censoring and interval censoring, but
only for parametric models. The Icens package estimates survival curves
for interval censored data (including multivariate times), but does not do
regression.
I am not aware of any package that allows semiparametric regression
modelling of interval censored or doubly censored data.
